Arbeitsmarkt: Was sollten junge Menschen im KI-Zeitalter studieren?

Berlin - Young people in the United States are reportedly growing increasingly fearful and angry about artificial intelligence (AI), according to video clips circulating online. At graduation ceremonies, students become restless and disruptive whenever speakers mention the term AI. In the United States, university education costs can range from tens of thousands to hundreds of thousands of dollars, and there is a significant concern that this investment may not yield the desired results given the rising unemployment among young graduates.

Many young individuals seem to blame the changes brought about by AI for the impact on employment opportunities.

The Handelsblatt, a German business newspaper, analyzed job market data from both the United States and Germany to determine which fields of study are most impacted by AI disruption and which are still in high demand. The data, derived from over 23,000 study programs in Germany, highlights some of the most promising majors for young people to consider as they navigate the rapidly evolving job market.
